Each act is anticipated to last approximately 75 minutes. \n \n\n\n\n\nAct and Division\nRed Carpet Open\nCeremony Start Time\nTargeted End Time\n\n\n\n\nACT I: Rising Star Division\, Grades K-4\n1:00 PM\n2:00 PM\n3:15 PM\n\n\nACT II: Junior Division\, Grades 5-6\n2:30 PM\n3:30 PM\n4:45 PM\n\n\nACT III: Intermediate Division\, Grades 7-8\n4:00 PM\n5:00 PM\n6:15 PM\n\n\nACT IV: Senior Division\, Grades 9-12\n5:30 PM\n6:30 PM\n7:45 PM\n\n\n\n\n\nThe “AMP It Up” DJ and Karaoke Egelston Black Box Bash will be open until 11:00 PM! \nPricing\nTo keep tickets costs down for our patrons\, we are offering two fun ways to enjoy this year’s AMP Awards: \n\n\nLive Viewing for Each Act\nPatrons will be able to purchase tickets individually for each Act providing seating in the Rodenbaugh Theatre where the ceremony will take place. Live viewing tickets will be assigned seat numbers based on the order they were purchased. You will be emailed before the event with your seat numbers. These tickets will include a full day party pass bracelet to allow access to each of the other fun venues throughout the day. \nPatrons should be aware that they must purchase a ticket for each act that they want to view live in the Rodenbaugh theatre. An individual ticket is ONLY valid for the Act for which it is purchased.\n\nFull-day Party Pass\nThis ticket entitles the patron the opportunity to attend all of the “Party Rooms” and enjoy the program on screens via live electronic feed. This family friendly Full-Day pass allows the wearer of the accompanying bracelet access to the Red Carpet\, the Copeland Viewing Theatre\, the Neiman Marcus Adult Party Room\, and the kids “AMP It Up” DJ and Karaoke Egelston Black Box Bash. \nThis full-day pass DOES NOT include access to the Rodenbaugh Theatre where the awards ceremony itself is taking place.\n\nThese tickets are available as follows: \n \n\n\n\n\n\nStudent Early Bird – Age 3-18 (EXTENDED to Feb. 10)\nStudent Regular – Age 3-18\nAdult Early Bird\n(EXTENDED to Feb. 10)\nAdult Regular\n\n\n\n\nAct I\n$17\n$22\n$25\n$30\n\n\nAct II\, III\, or IV\n$20\n$30\n$25\n$40\n\n\nFull Day Party Pass\n\n$15\n\n$20\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Awards Ceremony\nThe 9th Annual Awards Ceremony will take place by division in four separate Acts located in the Rodenbaugh Mainstage Theatre. Each Act will recognize that division’s Outstanding and Runner Up (in most categories) Award Recipients in dozens of categories\, culminating in “Outstanding Actor and Actress” and the coveted “NTPA Leadership Award”. The trophies will be awarded by the NTPA Directors\, providing an exciting on-stage photo opportunity for each of our recipients (a photographer will be making photos freely available to all participants). Each act also features special performances from the year past and shows about to hit the stage by our students. There will also be short update messages from NTPA Management and Board members during most sessions\, as well as exciting announcements about upcoming shows and “year in review” videos\, as well as short recognition moments for select volunteers and supporters. \nLive Performances During the Show\nEach AMP Awards features exciting live acts from the prior year and generally those about to hit the stage. These Acts are selected in advance by the theatre’s Managing Director. Those students participating in the live act performances must purchase a ticket to an individual act (does not have to be the Act in which they are performing) or a full-day Party Pass. Students will need to wait in the dressing room for their performance (and will not have a seat reserved or sit in the Rodenpbaugh Mainstage Theatre unless they have purchased a ticket for the Act in which they are performing). \nThe Party Rooms\n“party rooms” that will offer fun and excitement to our patrons: \n\n\n“AMP It Up” DJ and Karaoke Egelston Black Box BASH\nThis high-energy party begins immediately following the first act and continues through the day\, ending with the ALL AMPS AFTER PARTY at 10:00PM. This room will feature food and drinks for purchase\, a professional DJ and live Karaoke to be available after each Act throughout the day!\n\nCopeland Viewing Theatre\nThe Copeland Theatre will offer non-reserved seating for a viewing opportunity via live electronic feed from the party going on next door. Patrons can come and go as they please\, offering a great opportunity for parents with busy schedule\, little children or wanting a break from the live Awards Ceremony. Please advise that this is an open-seating venue and there may not be seats available.\n\nNeiman Marcus Adult Party Room\nExclusively for adults over age 21\, this party will feature a more relaxing live video viewing\, and favorite snacks and beverages for purchase and donation.\n\nWhat to Eat\nThe concession stand will be open for drinks and snacks during the event! \nGet 10% off when you eat dinner at California Pizza Kitchen during the AMP awards! Just show your AMP bracelet to your server to receive the discount! \n\n\nAMP Awards Selection Process\nThe Academy of Directors of the North Texas Performing Arts determines the categories and will nominate approximately 20 Performers pre category. The public will vote to assist in narrowing to the finalists. This “popular vote ballot” entitles participants to make a recommendation to the AMP Director’s selection process for our finalists from this list of nominations. \nA convention of the AMP Committee of Directors will be called after the final votes are taken and no less than two weeks before the AMP Awards Ceremony. The convention will consist of a minimum of three Directors which may include the Managing Director and agreed to by the Academy of Directors. The AMP Directors will complete an independent balloting. Directors vote on the quality of the performer’s work\, their attitude and work ethic\, and their behavior both on-stage and off. When there are four or fewer nominees in a category\, only a Finalist winner will be designated. \nA Trophy is issued to a Finalist and a Runner Up\, and all Finalists are given ribbon/medal commemorating their recognition. A performer cannot be awarded more than one trophy in a Finalist or Runner Up position\, though a performer can be recognized in the “Outstanding Leadership” category as well as another category. \nThe ultimate decision of the Finalists\, and Outstanding and Runner-Up Award Recipients is at the complete and full discretion of the AMP Academy. \n\n\n.fusion-button.button-3 .fusion-button-text\, .fusion-button.button-3 i {color:#ffffff;}.fusion-button.button-3 {border-width:0px;border-color:#ffffff;}.fusion-button.button-3 .fusion-button-icon-divider{border-color:#ffffff;}.fusion-button.button-3:hover .fusion-button-text\, .fusion-button.button-3:hover i\,.fusion-button.button-3:focus .fusion-button-text\, .fusion-button.button-3:focus i\,.fusion-button.button-3:active .fusion-button-text\, .fusion-button.button-3:active{color:#ffffff;}.fusion-button.button-3:hover\, .fusion-button.button-3:focus\, .fusion-button.button-3:active{border-width:0px;border-color:#ffffff;}.fusion-button.button-3:hover .fusion-button-icon-divider\, .fusion-button.button-3:hover .fusion-button-icon-divider\, .fusion-button.button-3:active .fusion-button-icon-divider{border-color:#ffffff;}.fusion-button.button-3{width:100%;}Purchase Tickets and Tshirts\n\n \n #gallery-2 {\n margin: auto;\n }\n #gallery-2 .gallery-item {\n float: left;\n margin-top: 10px;\n text-align: center;\n width: 50%;\n }\n #gallery-2 img {\n border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n }\n #gallery-2 .gallery-caption {\n margin-left: 0;\n }\n /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n
